Yeah, looks like he handed the controller off lmao

nah both the same

@@mustardleader1066 i mean the blade was good for a silver player but that soldier gameplay is straight up bronze moment.

@@ashonline77 nah the blade was like a 1-2 dry blade nano saved him

@@mustardleader1066 Again, for a silver player. I'm not expecting much from a silver genji that's why I considered it good not because the blade itself was actually good. And it was more so about the comparison on how terrible the soldier gameplay was. I don't think I've seen even silver soldiers position so badly.

It's almost like counter picking is an excuse that people who aren't good at the game make. It's not like there are people in top500 who only like playing one hero.

@@ZathrenIt is and it isn’t. It’s one those things that is somewhat of an issue, but once top players say it then that’s the new excuse for everything for low rank players. No different than when bastion was OP but low rank players would still just walk out in front of turret and say that he’s too strong, rather than admitting what they did was dumb

The issue with counterswapping is that it's mostly against tanks. And since tanks rely on teammates aswell to either hold space or gain hp back its not only the tanks job to deal with it. These teammates need to output enough pressure for you as tank to be able to hold it. However this is often not the case or atleast feels like it while you are playing tank. When playing into counters you need teammates who shoot the correct targets or take offsangles or flank to alleviate some pressure. Sometimes they even need to swap a hero to do this more effectively. When this doesn't happen, it really doesn't matter if you know exactly how to play into the counters. There are simply too many disadvantages for you to overcome to do anything. And even when your constantly swapping your tank to alleviate pressure onto yourself, you still need to be able to create space or be doing something useful that helps your team. Just staying alive 99% of the time is not enough. Also counterswapping a tank is just way to easy. The 25% ult upon swapping to 15% did absolutely nothing imo. Your effectiveness with tanks who you swap to is also reliant on the map and your own team comp and the available healing.

@@Zathren Its not an excuse. I counter swap if I'm not getting value because I want the game to be fun, rather than get rolled because I'm putting myself, and my team, at a disadvantage. T500 one tricks aren't really comparable to the general OW population. Not everyone has multiple hours a day to practice this game (or play it as their full time job in many cases). Most people just want the game to be fun.

Genji players when they can’t deflect : oh no! I’m countered

Exactly what I was thinking lmao Emongg is too nice we need flats on this one

I wish I could play Genji 😢 That being said, he's so easy to counter..... Just don't feed him.

That's what Genjis do. Blame OW devs for making one character so great looking and fun, others just don't feel the same

Right?! the audacity to think all 5 swapped for the Genji.

what's fun is that mei was on mei in the first fight but swapped to torb in the 1st round and then back to mei. So its probably just their main or close to it but Genji immediately thought it's about him.

Countering isn’t annoying when you aren’t stubborn trash who can only play one character. I get the entire team counter switching seems ridiculous, but this guy needs to learn to play somebody else.

@@PhysicallyAwakewhats the fun in counterpicking. Like yeah i get that sometimes it needs to happen if you really want to win. But if you truly enjoy playing a hero and feel your getting value like the genji was in the first half then having to switch to someone else despite still being good at the hero you swap too, just isnt fun anymore

Tbh tho ive never had a problem with any of the heros they picked at the start of round 2. Moira a bit but with proper healing from my supports i never worry about her out dmging me. Sombra is the only one i ever have a problem with but only if shes playing frontline, bc if im hacked out of deflect i already cant double jump or wallclimb and even after it ends im left with dash which ill die the second i use bc of her having an easy shot to land virus. If shes trying to pick off one of my supports tho its all too easy to handle her since i can just peel and help my support take her out. Even on occasion ill dash and take the virus for my support so they can either help kill the sombra without any worry of the virus getting them low or heal me while i deal with sombra so i dont die to virus myself.

​@@PhysicallyAwake i agree, im a one trick ball and playing agaisnt counters is basically every match, you have to get better at playing counters and not complain, cuz eventually they will counter you if you have a good game and they want to stop you

@@therickeffect7466 the fun is in not losing. Especially as a support, the majority of time I counterpick it’s usually because there’s an annoying asf genji targeting the back line.

Did you ever see a genji without an ego?yea that’s what I thought

Also this ending song in particular is a banger

What this doesn’t make sense

@@l0kpcr397 what is this when was a song mentioned hello?

@@epicevanhogan6489 oh if an Echo copies you and you die, you can’t swap off that character until Echo’s copy is over

@@epicevanhogan6489 a song wasn’t mentioned in the video? I was referring to the ending song of emongg’s video?

*cry in one trick* To be fair I’m a 2 trick

Exactly! Swapping comes at a cost of almost all your ult-charge, so it becomes a strategic choice at that point. The whole aspect of hero-choice, and being able to swap to counter if your composition is c*** against the enemy team comp, is what adds a strategic element to the game, and is part of what makes Overwatch more than a (totally) mindless shooting game.

Ha yes the classic diamond genji main. There you go it’s faster isn’t it.

“I must climb with Nano and Pocket Mercy up my ass 24/7”

In diamond they get nano so sometimes they hit stuff...i would say gold is more accurate@@alexdahmane7025

Some of us aren't like that 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Is that better than the I can only get kills if I don’t use nanoblade genji main?

People just expect you to roll over and suffer all game so they can have fun at your expense

@@Yashahiro_fr💀

when i play ana i wait for the genji to blade first because ive nanod too many people who just dont blade or ult when i nano them and tell them beforehand im gonna ult on them

Do not wait for the perfect scenario. Adjust. Even if you instantly die it’s better than never using it. Also. In case you didn’t notice. They were counter swapping for the Zarya. Not you (the Genji). They go Rein/Mei. Good against Zarya. Then when your Zarya swaps to Orisa. They go to Zarya, a counter to Orisa. They start as Zarya, expecting a Orisa. Then lose fight and swap to Rein again. I do not think this is entirely your fault. It’s more of you and your team never making adjustments. Also just an FYI. Soldier into a Rein is a big risk. Unless there is room to flank around and get behind enemy team as Soldier. I do not recommend going Soldier into a Rein in King’s row. Since you’ll just be shooting shields. King’s Row is too narrow to stay on the low ground. To make Soldier work, you needed to take the high ground and shoot from there. Instead you played Soldier like a tank.

It looked like you passed the controller to someone else to play Soldier 76. None of the same fundamentals you were using as Genji were seen when you played as Soldier. In the first rd as Genji, you were getting out of the enemy team's LOS when reloading and dashing away to safety when low hp. When you played soldier you were out in the middle of the map reloading getting rolled. I would say stop being allegic to health packs to take some of the pressure off your supports so they they have to healbot you, and then you enable them to make plays as well since you're not critical health every second. Also, watch your cooldowns a little more. You engaged a few times without a way to get out

Bro I'm a genji main like u and I mean u cannot tilt cuz counter swaps is the mean of the game. And mei Is an absolute counter but If u master genji well brig sym and Moira cannot counter u

Two things I'd recommend. First is learning more when to left click instead of right click. There was a bunch of times where you just kept spamming right clicks from a good distance away trying to hit a single target. Second thing was there was like two cases you ran at them when you pressed Q, generally you want to dash to high ground or just in the air so you can then dash and slash downwards at your victims with them having a limited amount of time to react to your multiple changes in location. It also makes it easier for Ana to nano you since you are above everything.

I totally feel this. A mei and Moira combo really isn't that bad. But when it's mei, echo, brig, and Moira I will admit that it's not worth playing into anymore. When the whole team sucks to play neutral against and there's only 1 decent blade target, I'm going to start considering other options. Fortunately I used to main Cass who is much more fun against the comps that are tough for genji

"Nooooo don't counter meee, just let me slaughter your team with 0 resistance!!! 🤬"

nah it just deletes some of the fun

True, however one thing they should do is reset ult charger to zero whenever someone swaps.

Only problem is that, here, the swaps to "counter" were done at the top of the round, not mid round. So ult reset meant nothing in terms of what the genji was doing.@@dr.ibrayt9395

No. Sometimes you can be trash and people still counter swap.

​​@@KianaKaslana366No this is true I get games rarely like this I'm the least effective on my team and I'm just kind of chilling around them and yet everyone on The enemy team just keeps counter swapping characters that are only good against my character but it's like I mean okay My team is still rolling you I'm not the issue you have to deal with

@@dr.ibrayt9395 The reason why that doesn't happen is because the game *wants* you to play multiple heros. You're literally not supposed to one trick a character. I love to one trick Widow or Ashe, but sometimes you simply have to swallow that pride and play someone else if it ain't working. It's not your opponents job to make sure you are having fun... And people complaining about others swapping in order to win is just a completely different level of mental gymnastics. I agree that the rock, paper, scissors shit is boring, but that isn't even happening here or in 99% of games. It happens in high ranks. The *majority* of players are in Gold and it isn't happening there, so let's all chill a bit.

since they had lazers that genji cant reflect like moira, mei and symmetra, and hammer swings like reinhardt or briggrett

People have zero accountability in a skill based game. It’s exhausting knowing that you expect ME to feed YOUR kd

Just let the man farm content

@@l0kpcr397 I watched it didn't I?

Sure swapping to mei or sym could be considered counter but I argue they just got rolled and decided to play "meta"
